Have you ever
sat and pondered the strangeness of the political left wing in America?
Have you ever wondered just how they justify their base hypocrisy on so
many issues? Sure we all have from time to time listened to some lefty
from say, Hollywood, spouting some nonsense and shaken our heads in amazement.

As I have covered
in this column many times in the past there are many issues where the
left talks out of one side of their faces and act out the other. And surely
the current tantrum those on the left are throwing over sport utility
vehicles is ripe with hypocrisy.

Many on the left
have in recent times have taken their childish hatred of the SUV to new
and sickening lows. Some have compared SUV drivers to terrorists and others
have accused anyone daring to drive an SUV of supporting terrorism because
their vehicle uses too much fuel.

There have even
been instances of wackos from the Earth Liberation Front, a domestic terrorist
group, firebombing car dealerships, which sell these vehicles. Others
have taken to issuing “tickets” to parked SUVs, basically
putting stickers all over the vehicles, ruining the paint job and costing
the owners hundreds or thousands of dollars.

Acts such as these
are no surprise; many of those who despise SUVs hate private property
and capitalism, which are to their twisted minds symbolized by the dreaded
SUV. Now to be fair most folks opposing sport utility vehicles are not
guilty of acts of terror. They are, however, quite guilty of acts of stupidity
and hypocrisy.

Many of those leading
this latest charge against anyone driving an SUV are from the entertainment
industry. Many actors and actresses have jumped on board the anti-SUV
bandwagon. Funny that a tabloid magazine recently showed many of these
earth first, no war for oil, don’t dare drive an SUV types driving
around in guess what? Sport utility vehicles.

They of course
would surely tell us they had good reasons for driving these cars wouldn’t
they? After all they never seem to be able to live by the rules they wish
to set for the rest of us. Rosie O'Donnell blasts guns and gun owners
as evil and dangerous, then she hires armed guards for her children. Sharon
Stone supports gun control yet she once fired a shotgun at an intruder
on her property to scare them away.

Now these folks
on the Left Coast are bashing SUV drivers while driving the very same
cars themselves. But this is the pattern with leftists is it not? They
consider themselves above the masses, and thus above the socialist rules
they would force upon the masses. They are more intelligent; they are
better fitted to run not only their lives but ours as well according to
them.

And the rich and
famous in Hollywood may want to ban guns, and prevent a mother of five
from driving an SUV, but they know those rules will never de demanded
of them. Not only is this hypocritical it is pathetic as well.
Like some dictator who feasts on fine beef and gets drunk on expensive
wine while his people eat stale bread and drink dirty water, these would
be socialists support draconian laws which they think will never touch
them.

Perhaps the most
glaring example of this sort of two-faced behavior is Arianna Huffington,
a columnist and political mouthpiece who used to claim to be Conservative.
Ms. Huffington has been the loudest and most irritating SUV basher in
recent memory. Column after column after column ripping SUV drivers as
wasteful, and greedy. Classifying them as not caring about polluting the
environment and supporting terrorism by using too much fuel.

Now of course this
is the same Arianna Huffington who often flies private jets and lives
in a huge mansion. I wonder who uses more fuel? Loud Mouth Huffington
in her private jet or the family of six driving to church on Sunday morning?

I am not even going
to point out to Ms. Huffington that eight people carpooling in an SUV
are saving gas by not driving separately. In fact they are saving more
fuel than if they all rode four to a car in the cracker boxes she would
likely force on us all.

I will not even
point out the fact that many of those SUV Huffington so despises as wasteful
have v-6 engines. They are not wasteful; in fact I used much more gas
driving my mustang than I do now driving an Explorer Sport.
Yet I do not see this hypocrite blasting drivers of Mustangs or Trans
Ams do you? So why the attack on anyone tooling around in an SUV? Is Huffington
just misguided? Does she really think her campaign will help anything?
Is she truly concerned about wasting fuel? Or is she just another loud-mouthed,
elitist, snob who has been educated well beyond her hat size?

Let’s go
with the last option. And let’s try to understand why she is demonizing
you and I. She is better than we are. She may tell us we do not NEED an
SUV. I wonder why she NEEDS that huge home and all those trips in private
jets?
